- Goldman Sachs managing director and Law School adjunct professor Jim Donovan shares his insights on the skills necessary to manage and cultivate client relationships. Donovan is responsible for advising many of the largest corporate and individual clients of Goldman Sachs. (University of Virginia School of Law, Nov. 6, 2015)
Jim Donovan’s hierarchy of needs:
Client needs > food and water > shelter > sleep > client needs > self actualization.
Lmao I love this.
Amazing
Haha
Haha!
Food and water may fill your hands, but satisfying client needs will fill your heart 😎

5:27 . I'm not trying to be a dick here, Jim Donovan is highly qualified, more than I will ever be ;).
Indeed, he actually uses "and" a lot which is probably his equivalent of "um".
The problem we have is because Most people always taught that " you only need a good job to become rich. These billionaires are operating on a whole other playbook that many don't even know exists.
Money invested is far better than
money saved, when you invest it gives
you the opportunity to increase your
financial worth.
It is remarkable how much long term
advantage people like us have gotten by trying to be consistently not stupid,
instead of trying to be very intelligent.
The wisest thing that should be on
everyone mind currently should be to
invest in different streams of income
that doesn't depend on government
paycheck, especially with the current
economic crisis around the world. This is still a time to invest in Stocks, Forex and Digital currencies.
I also keep seeing lot's of people
testifying about how they make money investing in Stock, Forex and Crypto Trade(Bitcoin) and I wonder why I keep loosing. Can anyone help me out or at least advice me on what to do.
Even with the right technique and
assets some investors would still make more than others. As an investor, you should've known that by now that nothing beats experience and that's final. Personally I had to reach out to a stock expert for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to $35k, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I'm buying again.
Building Skills
1. Find somebody who's really good at what you want to achieve, and learn from them.
2. Put ego aside when you are shadowing them.
3. Skills are not innate, they are learnt.
Client Management
1. Take the opportunity to build a strategic client relationship beyond contracted work scope.
2. Be opportunistic, and aim to be a go-to for clients.
3. Get them talking.
4. What clients value more than analysis is solutions and creative workarounds.
5. Uphold credibility and put the client first.
6. Be realistic about work-life balance - it is a competitive industry.
7. Positivity is contagious. Be upbeat.
8. Learn the jargon. Take classes in business and law to improve competency.
Check clients regularly, be responsive.
Be upbeat, be happy face, be contagious. Don’t tell clients negative things.
Take classes in law and business
Demystify the jargon and concepts
Be familiar with the language
you're a lifesaver, thanks for putting these together. perfect summary

Is this real life Harvey specter ?
Whenever I wanna freshen up my presentation skills, I always end up watching this video.
DUDE, same! I watch this multiple times a month.
These videos are golden. Thank you. Networking seems like a simple common sense, but it’s really hard to be actually good at it.
This is an amazing speech.
Add value - listen - strategize - be honest - outwork and always be working for one purpose: when your client has a problem, you need to be the way for solution building. This will make you money. It’s good for your client and your future.
This guy is so articulate! Really, I never catch him saying "umm".
Is it wierd that I watch this as a 33 year old warehouse worker?
Not at all… it’s great.
How nice it is to get these priceless, valuable pieces of advice for free.
How are you doing today and how is the weather condition over there?
This is such a brilliant video. I cover clients in banking in London and send this video to all of my team regularly.
whenever I am struggling in law school, I watch this video. His advice is so valuable and real. Also, this is why I don't want to be in big law lollll
Is it because you wanna be the mayor of NYC?
This can apply to many other fields of work. Smart dude.
The "be an everything advisor" will make you more money than any other single piece of advice. When you become that person to a client they will become a rainmaker for you.
To be honest this video was one of the most inspiring video I ever watched around that topic... Amazing loved that. On top of the messages it was a super professional presentation... Incredible. This man is a truly inspiring person...
Excellent, straightforward lecture while still being engaging.
this guy got the whole package jesus incredible dude, much motivation
Hard work and dedication goes a long way if you actually do it
A fantastic talk with excellent advice. I don't, and never have, worked for Goldman but you can see why they're the best with people like this working there.
with hacks? this guy's a tool.
Thanks for making this available
How are you doing today and how is the weather condition over there?
The secret sauce to being a successful management consultant or IB, is this: Common Sense, Logic, Integrity, and ABL--always be learning.

Amazing this advice can apply in so many scenarios.
great advice for young professionals in client-based service industries
Advice from Goldman Sachs MD 1. Find a model 2. Strategic advisors 3. Ask open-ended question 4. Be creative 5. Put the client first -> advise company even it is not in your interest, work really hard and convince them you are there for all the time 6. Be upbeat- don’t let the clients know that you are not happy
Great advice! It applied to every professions !
this dude is brilliant and inspiring. as a lawyer gone executive I would have had much less pain in the ass and professional drama in my life if I had heard earlier what this man has to say about profession.
Well done algorythm.I am proud of you
This video makes me want to go back to college. I think I just didn't have the right mindset when I went about it the first time and now after watching this and being older I'm really able to see how beneficial information and knowledge like this is.
I know the feeling haha, wish I had all my knowledge from now back when I was 18 when choosing university
Great video, now that I’m in the working world I found this video and learned a lot. I don’t think I would have in college. We should normalize classes during employment. PSU grad.
Fantastic video. He seems like a man of integrity and that clearly speaks volumes in his client relationships.
It's the suit.
Rumors say that during 90's he met Jordan Belfort and sold him a pen, even though Jordan already had two pens in his shirt pocket.
True! I was there. :)

After a horrendous 2022, shell-stunned financial backers have misfortunes to recover and a lot to consider, as an expansion report and a pile of different information did close to nothing to change assumptions that the Central bank would probably keep climbing interest rates regardless of whether the economy dials back, And that implies more red ink for portfolios for the principal quarter of year 2023. How might I benefit from the ongoing unstable market, I'm currently at a junction choosing if to exchange my $250k security/stock portfolio.
In reality, I've been having regular conversations with financial examiners ever since the coronavirus. Buying moving stocks is now quite simple; the key is knowing when to purchase and sell. My attorney issues the section and leave orders for my portfolio. accumulated from an initial stagnant savings of $150,000 more than $550,000.
@@markgeorge8206 My consultant is Julie Anne Hoover I found her on a CNBC interview where she was featured and reached out to her afterwards. She has since provide entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. You can look her up online if you care supervision. I basically follow her trade pattern and haven't regretted doing so.
@@marcelrobert9569 Insightful... I curiously looked up her name on the internet and I found her site, thanks for sharing
@@marcelrobert9569 This recommendation comes just in time because I'm literally grasping for straws right now! I looked her up on the internet and made plans to call her.
These bots recommending financial advisors have gotten pretty good at sounding human. Do not fall for these scams people, I've seen them on every youtube video related to business/finance.
The last point about speaking the language/jargon of the profession is so true.
Seven minutes in and hitting the like button - this is really good! Thank you Sir.
How are you doing today and how is the weather condition over there?
Beautiful!!! Thank you for the value shared
Great speech. Excited to apply this at my new job
Some golden advice here. No doubt, he's an excellent banker!
How are you doing today and how is the weather condition over there?
Love how he says “work-life balance” like he knows he doesn’t mean it. Esp since he’s been there a while. Had a friend that worked at GS right out of college and she made no pretense about any balance.
To clarify: I went to high school and college with this person. We lived on the same street. She was successful at GS bc she is wired differently. She was 3rd in our class without breaking a sweat in a serious environment. In college, she breezed through at the top (it wasn’t easy. Just looked that way). All this to say... she could handle any workload thrown at her and *important part* her hobbies were things like running and other health oriented stuff.
Just confirming that some people have “work capacity” and internal discipline. They sleep hard and play hard when they’re not at work
Yeah... when you are playing big games, the games are your work and your life. That's just how it is. Nobody will trust you with a task that can make or lose millions if you aren't willing to pick up the phone at 2AM.
@thedudemsk and still them and the ones who do sacrifice the blood and tears end up in the same place after death. A pile of bone and dust. Except that the so called lazy ones spent their time enjoying life, and others never had any time to.
@thedudemsk It's pretty clear you're a high school kid or someone who has never worked if you think it's between these two options. There's a massive spectrum of people with happy upper-middle class lives making in the mid-six figures and working 40-50hr weeks. See: big tech, F500 corporate strategy, etc.
this man is fire
This was great! Some honest and really good advice.
I'd love to hear this guy's opinion of Huey Lewis And The News
Wonderful advice by a competent man
This guy is giving out experiences of a lifetime. The students are already ahead in their life. USA at its best.
what does this have to do with USA? lol

You sir just won the 'murica fuck yeah award of the day bravo
More videos from Jim Donovan please!!!
Insightful. Thoroughly enjoyed this talk.
Great lecture for anyone interacting with other people.....So, for every one, I guess.
Yeah, this is a great video for my niece who works part time in Starbucks!
This is good for consulting and freelancing as well. We feast and famine in freelancing too. Good to smooth that out.
I'm an engineering consultant and he is spot on!
How did you make it to that role?
This guy actually looks like a stereotypical banker/layer/consultant. Interesting
yea and feels like you want to tell him don't afraid to be yourself / stop faking someone else and fullfil some idiotic image
Definite lizard vibes.
Max R more like *LAZARD VIBES*

he's Patrick bateman
Great conference, hope you come back to chealsea, we really miss you Tuchel
how many here are not consultants and just here for some sweet knowledge
best video ive seen a long time now
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Worth the time!
Best Quote "The client asked me about Huey Lewis & the News, I think their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square". A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself. Hey, Paul!"
Nice. This fits perfectly 😆
What a dope dude. I love his energy fr.
Nice overview , something that I had no idea about.
Great topic. So pertinent to me in Sales.
Yep. I call it leading and have dropped the sales verbiage. High level sales is leadership in relationships.
World class professor.
Find someone good at it and learn from them. Become a strategic adviser to the client. Go beyond the primary role you were assigned at employment. Take that opportunity to build a relationship by offering advice in other areas (not in an intrusive way). Be empathetic (ask open-ended questions and be ready to listen). Be creative
I actually want to be in his class. I would have followed him in the company. Thank You university of virginia for posting such wonderful videos.
Great advice
This is advice, for life. Well beyond managing clients
So true, find the best mentor you can in your trade, and do everything like him/her: it will save you a ton of time doing all possible errors. I was so immature out of college ... so many regrets
Students who are overwhelmed by talks like these need to realize that you are sacrificing your time with friends and family for a job like investment banking. You need to be the one make the choice to see if it's worth it.
@T What if you have no friends and you hate your family?
@@SV42165 exactly stop listening to these fake woke ppl
@@SV42165 then you will flourish
your just salty u didnt get in investment banking

I should probably just listen to this every morning before work
I listen to this multiple times a month.
very sharp points! got inspired by him
Great to see Saul made it!
I watch this yearly
Time to do it again
You are the man!
Thanks for sharing!
Love these talks
thank you very much , very valuable lessons!
Impressive. Very nice.
Brilliant video !!!
This is SUPERB advice. It’s serving me well at my firm - in life in general!
Great video
Thanks for lesson
Now I want to study in all his classes!
Wow
Am I the only one who think he loves his client?
...and there's a sunk cost that you the advisor absorb upfront but you gain a client for the life of that client, and your career. You also develop quite naturally a well tuned referral portfolio.
“ carry somebody’s bag for them “ is a kindly gesture .. also flatter them is another way
This my friends, is what a COMPETENT MAN looks like
Your mother knows what a competent man looks like
@@RooKangaRoo What ? 😯😃
what a sharp man!
Thanks...
And here I am back again, watching this priceless piece of wisdom again before I go into my first investor meeting in few days, which is an important one for the firm as well.
Wisdom, a priceless commodity..
The lifelike "skin" stretched tightly around a hyper-alloy combat chassis is stitched together pretty crudely in the back, but FROM SOME ANGLES it can almost appear human, so they have careful programming to move their head like that.
This is one of the funniest comments on this thread. Good job.
crazy that this knowledge is free to anyone these days
Great video!
Awesome content!!
The type of person that you can gain a lot of life skills from 💗
Excellent advice
Corporate talk much interesting. Much work life balance.
yeah pretty shitty talk doesn't translate over to the real world
I just started to invest through dividends in the stock market and I want to become an Investment Banker, after this speech by Mr. Jim Donovan, I want to become one even more. University of Virginia, you are at the top of my list and will be applying to you in the coming years.
I want to be an investment banker too
How is it going mate? I hope you are achieving your goal.
This guy said Um once in 20 min. Great speaker
Like many, first thoughts went to American Psycho 😂 but credit where credit's due, I kept watching, great presentation
